Paris 1874: The Artistic Revolt Against the Salon and the Birth of Impressionism. Sebastian Smee discusses how on April 15, 1874, an exhibition opened marking the birth of Impressionism. The group, including Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Sisley, Cézanne, Degas, and Berthe Morisot, set up the show deliberately outside the established Salon. The Impressionists were frustrated by repeated Salon rejections and were in revolt; they wanted to paint contemporary life and fresh landscapes, rejecting the hierarchy and "made-up landscapes." The name Impressionism originated as an insult from a critic, inspired by Monet's painting, Impression, Sunrise. Critics found the paintings unstructured and lacking deep meaning. A crucial figure absent from the exhibition was Édouard Manet, considered the "father of Impressionism," who still believed success required Salon acceptance and saw the Impressionist show as a small, isolated "silo."

Berthe Morisot and Édouard Manet: Art, Affection, and the Struggle Against Bourgeois Expectations. Sebastian Smee discusses how the Impressionists lived amidst the violence of the 1870 Franco-Prussian War. Berthe Morisot came from the wealthy haute bourgeoisie and, along with her sister Edma, became a serious painter, successfully exhibiting at the Salon. However, women of their background were expected to marry and give up painting. Berthe, still unmarried at 29 in 1869, was devoted to her art when she met Édouard Manet at the Louvre. Manet was captivated by Berthe and invited her to pose for The Balcony. Despite precautions, a mutual flirtation developed, though Manet was married to Suzanne, which stood as an impediment.

May 1871: Bloody Week and Morisot's Transformation Into a Professional Artist. Sebastian Smee discusses how the Commune began to fall when French government forces returned to retake the city, resulting in Bloody Week in May 1871. The civil conflict was atrociously violent, with the Communards retreating street by street and systematically burning important Parisian buildings. The atmosphere was toxic, resulting in summary executions on a massive scale. Berthe Morisot and her family witnessed the smoke and were stunned by the devastation upon returning. The traumatic events had a profound effect on Morisot, intensifying her resolve to carve out a career as a professional painter—a radical decision for a woman of her background. In subsequent years, Morisot emerged from Manet's shadow, becoming more radical and innovative in her subject matter. 1870

Sincerity, Transience, and the Domestic Focus of Berthe Morisot's Art. Sebastian Smee discusses how the Impressionists' defining characteristic was plein air painting—painting outside directly in front of the subject. Berthe Morisot was highly innovative, concentrating on women at home doing ordinary, domestic activities. Her work was quick, often using only a few brushstrokes, conveying the impression of a moment glimpsed. Morisot was one of the most radical Impressionists in her style, frequently leaving large parts of the canvas bare to emphasize the feeling of something "quickly caught as if on the fly." Smee identifies her as a "real poet" of fugitive effects and threshold states, often painting adolescent girls at the "cusp of adulthood." Her acute awareness of life's transience and fragility was evident in her style.

The Wedding, Manet's Decline, and the Posthumous Fight Over Morisot's Legacy. Sebastian Smee discusses how in the aftermath of the "terrible year," Édouard Manet painted Berthe Morisot several times in a series Smee considers one of the greatest records of intimacy in art history. Manet resolved the situation by setting Berthe up with his brother, Eugène Manet, who proved to be a good husband who supported Berthe's dedication to painting. Despite Édouard advising against it, Berthe joined the first Impressionist exhibition, demonstrating her "incredible audacity and independence." The sad aspect was Édouard Manet's decline: he suffered from syphilis and died in agony after a leg amputation. Following Berthe Morisot's death (she contracted an illness while tending to her sick daughter, Julie), Renoir, Degas, and Monet came together to stage a posthumous exhibition to honor her. The process was volatile because each painter felt a fierce, private relationship with her work. In the 20th century, Morisot was often overlooked by male critics who dismissed her domestic subject matter, though her peers viewed her art as innovative and brilliant.

The Scarcity Value of Time: Impressionism and the Legacy of Julie Manet. Sebastian Smee discusses how Berthe Morisot's life is carried forward by her daughter, Julie Manet, who represents a "perfect representation of Berthe." Before Berthe succumbed to illness, she wrote a tender letter expressing how Julie had "never once not made me happy." Smee links the philosophy of Impressionism to Sigmund Freud's essay "On Transience," arguing that awareness of mortality should make people value the present moment more—a concept called "scarcity value in time." Impressionism is inherently an "art of transience" that captures fugitive effects. Morisot exemplified this philosophy by valuing the present moment's beauty, refusing to apply artificial meanings or permanence. Ironically, revolutionary Impressionism soon became "orthodox," though the next generation reacted against it, believing it lacked structure. Despite criticisms, Impressionism has lasted because audiences recognize the truth in valuing fugitive effects, and its greatest contribution was the liberation of color.

Using artworks by Berthe Morisot, Édouard Manet, Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and others, The Art of Parisian Chic: Modern Women and Modern Artists in Impressionist Paris (Bloomsbury, 2025) by Dr. Justine De Young explores how women and artists in Impressionist Paris (1855-1885) crafted their public images to exploit and resist stereotypes.French societal expectations and beauty ideals shaped how women were seen and how they chose to present themselves in public – whether on the street, in a photograph, or in a portrait on the walls of the annual Paris Salon. On Paris's broad new boulevards and in its public parks and theaters, women dressed to impress anonymous strangers as well as their friends. They even circulated aspirational photographs of themselves. Looking at a rich array of visual sources – from portraits to modern-life paintings, and from photographs to fashion plates – Dr. De Young reveals how women were seen, how they aspired to be seen, and how they navigated public life in Second Empire and Belle Époque Paris.This book considers how fashionable feminine “types” made famous in books, caricatures, and paintings created a visual lexicon and stylistic guide for women. Men and women alike relied on these types – cocotte (mistress), jeune veuve (young widow), amazone (independent equestrienne), demoiselle de magasin (shopgirl), and Parisienne (chic Parisian woman) – to judge the class, character, morality, and worth of strangers. With a rich set of illustrations from the Impressionist canon and beyond, The Art of Parisian Chic shows how modern women used fashion and these stereotypes to construct and reinvent their identities. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In this episode of Biographers in Conversation, Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic Sebastian Smee chats with Dr Gabriella Kelly-Davies about his choices while crafting Paris in Ruins: How Love, War and Art Gave Birth to Impressionism. Here's what you'll discover in this episode: How the chaos of war and revolution in 1870s Paris shaped the birth of Impressionism. Why the relationship between Édouard Manet and Berthe Morisot was central to the book and the Impressionist Movement. How Impressionism's quick brushwork and light fixation reflect trauma, urgency and impermanence. Why Smee gives Berthe Morisot equal prominence and reinterprets her legacy in a male-dominated art world. What it means to write empathetic, narrative-driven biography while honouring archival truth. Why art made in crisis can speak across generations and offer hope, resistance and resilience.

Lundi 28 novembre 2022 Elisabetta Rasy présente ''Berthe Morisot – Inquiètude” et “Susanne Valadon – Rébellion” , extrait du livre ''Le desobbedienti, storie di sei donne che hanno cambiato l'arte'' publiés pour la première fois en français par les éditions pagine d'Arte. En dialogue avec Daria Galateria. Elisabetta Rasy invite le lecteur à une rencontre inattendue avec Berthe Morisot et Susanne Valadon,  leur immense talent et leur indépendance par rapport au contexte de leur famille et de l'époque.  Au départ, tout oppose ces deux artistes. La première, née dans la familiarité des poètes et des artistes, a toujours été entourée et suivie par des maîtres qui ont su stimuler son talent. Grâce à son talent et à sa détermination, Berthe Morisot sera reconnue, avec Mary Cassat, comme une des rares peintres impressionnistes.  Suzanne Valadon, au contraire, est née en province de père inconnu et dans une situation familiale d'extrême précarité. Enfant, sa mère l'emmène à Paris où le village de Montmartre promet du travail... et l'enfant qui refuse l'école deviendra modèle avant de passer de l'autre côté du chevalet : sa place est devenue rapidement celle du peintre.Elisabetta Rasy est une écrivaine et journaliste italienne.  

15 febbraio 2025 - Andrea Kerbaker in dialogo con Margherita Priarone

July 3rd, 2025 MADISON -- First up, be greeted by WLRN's founder, Thistle Pettersen before she hands the baton to WLRN's newest member, Ms. Cat Bradfield, who delivers the world news segment. After enjoying Tracy Chapman's song "The Promise", hear Arianne of LGB Alliance USA speak with Thistle about Pride 2025 just before Arianne hopped into the woods for a RadFem summer camp in the Pacific Northwest this June and July. Then, hear a rendition of aurora linnea's first piece she turned in to WLRN in 2021 that April Neault loved so much, she made into this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiJGYYpXhWo After the reading of aurora's essay entitled "Pride: Corporate Patriarchy's Celebration in the Streets", we end our show by thanking our guest, Arianne of LGB Alliance USA, and signing off. This month's artwork is by WLRN's graphic designer and artist, Margaret Moss. Edition 111 Artist's Statement : "I started the featured image with an oil sketch Berthe Morisot created in 1885. The drawing/painting she made is a self-portrait that includes a portrait of her daughter. All loosely rendered. I kept the background of Berthe Morisot's oil sketch, and I digitally sketched an image of our guest Arianne of LGB Alliance USA, and Tracy Chapman, whose song, ‘The Promise' is included in this month's podcast. I included purple and green because I especially like those colors - and I appreciate that they have a connection to (British) suffragists. I enjoyed interacting with Berthe Morisot's artwork. Even though she created her painting in 1885, it has a modern feel. I expect that Morisot had a greater influence on Modern Art than she is given credit for. I appreciate women such as Berthe Morisot, all the suffragists, Arianne, and Tracy Chapman for their contributions to our culture. And I appreciate WLRN for lifting up women so their voices can be heard more widely."

As renowned art critic Sebastian Smee shows, it was against the backdrop of these tumultuous times that the Impressionist movement was born―in response to violence, civil war, and political intrigue. In stirring and exceptionally vivid prose, Smee tells the story of those dramatic days through the eyes of great figures of Impressionism. Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Edgar Degas were trapped in Paris during the siege and deeply enmeshed in its politics. Others, including Pierre-August Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, joined regiments outside of the capital, while Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro fled the country just in time. In the aftermath, these artists developed a newfound sense of the fragility of life. That feeling for transience―reflected in Impressionism's emphasis on fugitive light, shifting seasons, glimpsed street scenes, and the impermanence of all things―became the movement's great contribution to the history of art. At the heart of it all is a love story; that of Manet, by all accounts the father of Impressionism, and Morisot, the only woman to play a central role in the movement from the start. Smee poignantly depicts their complex relationship, their tangled effect on each other, and their great legacy, while bringing overdue attention to the woman at the heart of Impressionism

B.A. Shapiro's The Lost Masterpiece can be preordered on Amazon HERE.Berthe Morisot was a female Impressionist painter active in Paris during the second half of the 19th century. She exhibited her work alongside famed Impressionist artists Monet, Degas, and Renoir, among others, and was the only woman to be included in the first major show of Impressionist art in 1874. Despite the many limitations she faced as a female artist of her time, Morisot established herself as an integral member of the Impressionist group. She also modeled for a number of paintings by Manet, and though she was married to his brother, many believe that Manet and Morisot were engaged in a long-run secret affair.B.A. Shapiro is a New York Times best selling author. In 2013, she was awarded the New England Book Award for Fiction for her novel, The Art Forger.

Linda Tugnoli"Art Night"Rai5Art Night – Il volto e l'animaIndagine sul ritratto femminileL'intelligenza artificiale ha un problema con le donne, in particolare, con il modo con cui crea immagini che dovrebbero rappresentarle. Molti osservatori hanno notato che tende a generare, qualunque sia il “promt”, cioè la richiesta, donne troppo perfette, ipersessualizzate, preferibilmente dai tratti occidentali. Nei suoi dataset si sono depositati pregiudizi e bias preesistenti, impliciti nei milioni di immagini con cui è stata nutrita. Lo racconta il doc “Indagine sul ritratto femminile”, in onda mercoledì 21 maggio alle 21.15 in prima visione su Rai 5 per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè.L'arte ha aiutato a forgiare quest'immagine archetipica del femminile? O potrebbe, invece, rappresentare un antidoto alla standardizzazione dei canoni estetici oggi in atto? Una storia del ritratto femminile è un viaggio che dalle Veneri preistoriche senza volto giunge fino al ‘900, in cui gli artisti hanno utilizzato il ritratto anche per esplorare tematiche di genere, identità e potere, a volte sfidando le convenzioni sociali e le aspettative riguardanti il “bel sesso”. Un viaggio che attraversa quindi numerose tematiche, dall'evoluzione dei canoni di bellezza femminile, al ruolo della donna nella società e nell'immaginario artistico e letterario maschile, alla nascita di un'arte “al femminile”, a una storia del costume. Giada Pistilli, responsabile dell'etica per una piattaforma di intelligenza artificiale franco-americana, Hugging Face, con sede a Parigi, punta il dito contro i limiti e i bias relativi all'immagine femminile, ipersessualizzata e stereotipata, nell'AI e nel mondo di Internet in genere. Per l'arte preistorica, dove dominano rappresentazioni femminili della fertilità e della maternità, si visita il Musée d'Archéologie Nationale in Francia, a St. Germain-en-Laye, intervistando Catherine Schwab, responsabile delle collezioni paleolitiche e mesolitiche, sulla celebre Dama di Brassempouy, forse il volto più antico nella storia dell'arte europea con i suoi 25.000 anni. Per l'arte egizia, Christian Greco, Direttore del Museo Egizio a Torino parla dei ritratti di due bellissime regine, Nefertiti e Tye. Luana Toniolo, Direttrice del Museo Nazionale Etrusco di Villa Giulia a Roma e Vincenzo Bellelli, Direttore del Parco Archeologico di Cerveteri e Tarquinia, vanno in uno straordinario viaggio attraverso le rappresentazioni femminili nell'arte etrusca, sottolineando il diverso ruolo sociale della donna nel mondo etrusco rispetto al mondo greco-romano. Fabrizio Paolucci, responsabile della Collezione delle Antichità Classiche delle Gallerie degli Uffizi, a Firenze, racconta la meravigliosa Giulia di Tito, un capolavoro della ritrattistica romana del II secolo d.C. Si indaga, inoltre, su un interessante fenomeno seicentesco, “Le stanze delle belle”, quelle “serie” o collezioni di ritratti femminili che riunivano tutte le esponenti delle famiglie nobili, con Francesca Cappelletti, Direttrice della Galleria Borghese a Roma, che a questo tema così particolare ha dedicato un libro, con Francesco Petrucci, conservatore del Palazzo Chigi in Ariccia dove si conserva una delle rarissime Stanze delle belle giunte fino a noi e Veronica Ambrosoli, responsabile dell'Ufficio Conservazione del FAI, Fondo Ambiente Italiano, che apre le porte dello straordinario Castello di Masino, nel Canavese, che ospita una collezione di belle donne francesi. Con Cristina Mazzantini, Direttrice della Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, a Roma, si arriva fino alle soglie della modernità analizzando il fondamentale cambiamento del ruolo delle donne nella società tra ‘800 e ‘900, evidente nei volti affascinanti di Modigliani, Klimt o di Boldini conservati alla GNAM. Grazie a un accordo di collaborazione con il prestigioso Museo d'Orsay, a Parigi, che ospita la più importante collezione di opere d'arte della seconda metà dell'ottocento e in particolare dell'impressionismo, Sylvie Patry e Leïla Jarbouai approfondiscono il cambiamento forse più importante per il ritratto femminile nell'era moderna: la conquista di uno spazio autonomo da parte di artiste donne come Berthe Morisot, tra i fondatori del movimento impressionista, grazie alle quali finalmente acquista diritto di cittadinanza nel mondo dell'arte lo sguardo delle donne sulle donne. Anche tra i pionieri della fotografia, più o meno negli stessi anni, si possono annoverare diverse donne, come per esempio Julia Margaret Cameron, che, secondo Federica Muzzarelli, docente di Storia della Fotografia all'Università di Bologna, colgono con sorprendente rapidità e originalità le potenzialità proprie del nuovo mezzo, forse approfittando proprio della loro marginalità rispetto al mondo ufficiale della cultura e dell'arte.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale le tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica con tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale. Art NightIndagini sull'autoritrattoViviamo nell'era del selfie: l'ultimo decennio ha visto la costruzione di un nuovo io, idealizzato, esibito e condiviso sui social; dappertutto nascono musei del selfie che predispongono sfondi appositi perché non ci basta più collezionare immagini di noi nel mondo. Secondo alcuni, questa nuova identità digitale rischia di svuotarci della nostra interiorità. L'arte è un punto di osservazione privilegiato su questo aspetto del mondo contemporaneo. Lo racconta “Indagini sull'autoritratto”, in onda in prima visione per l'Art Night di Neri Marcorè mercoledì 28 maggio alle 21.15 su Rai 5.L'autoritratto ha uno statuto assolutamente particolare all'interno della storia dell'arte: si trova all'intersezione di almeno tre elementi centrali: l'artista, la sua arte e la sua persona, intesa nel doppio significato del personaggio pubblico che l'artista intende mettere in scena e dell'individuo con la sua verità, con i suoi tratti distintivi, fisiognomici e caratteriali. Il compito di creare un proprio volto che resterà per sempre può far vacillare l'artista più sicuro di sé. A volte le facce non sono giuste, non hanno l'aspetto che dovrebbero avere: Van Dick, autore di austeri ritratti di nobili e di reali, sembra un bambino biondo; Delacroix così appassionato, così romantico, ha due baffetti a spazzola sotto un naso un po' antipatico; Degas ha un'aria un po' imbambolata; Rembrandt, nella serie di autoritratti più formidabile della storia dell'arte, non riesce a decidersi nemmeno sul suo colore d'occhi o di capelli, ma ci rivela che l'identità individuale è mutevole, come sono mutevoli le alterne fortune della vita e i segni che lo scorrere del tempo lascia sul corpo.C'è differenza tra un selfie e un autoritratto? Questo è stato il punto di partenza di questo viaggio, a Parigi, insieme a Dominique Cardon, sociologo del Médialab dell'università di SciencesPo.Il documentario, scritto da Linda Tugnoli e prodotto da Mark in video in collaborazione con Rai Cultura, è stato girato in Italia e in Francia integrando in modo sperimentale tecniche di animazione con intelligenza artificiale alle tradizionali tecniche di ripresa e di grafica.Linda Tugnoli vive tra Roma – dove lavora come autrice e regista di documentari, soprattutto per la Rai – e la campagna sabina, dove abita in un casale con il marito, tre figli, un orto, una serra e svariati cani di grossa taglia che periodicamente devastano l'orto e la serra. Ha contratto anni fa quello che gli inglesi chiamano il bug del giardiniere: una spiccata tendenza a parlare troppo di piante e di fiori. La forma del ghiaccio è il terzo romanzo dedicato alle indagini del giardiniere Guido.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

As renowned art critic Sebastian Smee shows, it was against the backdrop of these tumultuous times that the Impressionist movement was born―in response to violence, civil war, and political intrigue. In stirring and exceptionally vivid prose, Smee tells the story of those dramatic days through the eyes of great figures of Impressionism. Édouard Manet, Berthe Morisot, and Edgar Degas were trapped in Paris during the siege and deeply enmeshed in its politics. Others, including Pierre-August Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, joined regiments outside of the capital, while Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro fled the country just in time. In the aftermath, these artists developed a newfound sense of the fragility of life. That feeling for transience―reflected in Impressionism's emphasis on fugitive light, shifting seasons, glimpsed street scenes, and the impermanence of all things―became the movement's great contribution to the history of art. At the heart of it all is a love story; that of Manet, by all accounts the father of Impressionism, and Morisot, the only woman to play a central role in the movement from the start.

"PREVIEW: Conversation with art critic Sebastian Smee, author of 'Paris in Ruins,' about Berthe Morisot, the first female Impressionist and muse to the movement's founding artists, including Édouard Manet. More later this week." 1870s, Barthe Morisot by Edqard Manet.

For the 34th episode of "Reading the Art World," host Megan Fox Kelly speaks with Sebastian Smee, Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic for The Washington Post and author of "Paris in Ruins: Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism,” published by W. W. Norton.This fascinating conversation explores the violent political upheavals of 1870-71 Paris — the Siege of Paris and the Paris Commune — and how they influenced the Impressionist movement. Smee shares insights into the lives of the artists who survived these dramatic days, including Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet and Berthe Morisot, who were trapped in Paris; Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Frédéric Bazille, who joined regiments outside of the capital; and Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro, who fled the country just in time.Through rigorous research into personal letters and historical documents, Smee illuminates the human context behind familiar masterpieces of light created during this dark period. He offers a fresh perspective on why the Impressionists, with their newfound sense of the fragility of life, turned toward transient subjects of modern life, leisure, fleeting moments and the impermanence of all things in the aftermath of such devastating events.ABOUT THE AUTHOR Sebastian Smee is an art critic for The Washington Post and winner of the 2011 Pulitzer Prize for Criticism. His previous works include "The Art of Rivalry" and books on Mark Bradford and Lucian Freud.

Welcome to the FINALE of Season 12! I am so excited to say that my guest on the GWA Podcast is the acclaimed writer, Sheila Heti. Born in 1976 in Toronto, where she lives today, Heti is the author of eleven books, from novels to novellas, short stories and children's books. Most recently, her acclaimed books have included Alphabetical Diaries, that ordered a decade worth of diaries in alphabetical order; Pure Colour (2022), a novel that explores grief, art and time; Motherhood (2018), a meditation on whether or not to become a mother in a society that judges you whatever the outcome. Heti's writing is some of the most honest, thoughtful I've ever read, and throughout weaves in the broad subject of art, whether it be paintings or her protagonists' professions… Heti also wrote for the literary journal the Believer, and has conducted many long-form print interviews with writers and artists, including conversations with Joan Didion, Elena Ferrante, Agnes Varda, Sophie Calle, who are among some of the artists we are going to be, very excitingly, discussing today. -- THIS EPISODE IS GENEROUSLY SUPPORTED BY THE LEVETT COLLECTION: https://www.famm.com/en/ https://www.instagram.com/famm_mougins // https://www.merrellpublishers.com/9781858947037 Follow us: Katy Hessel: @thegreatwomenartists / @katy.hessel Sound editing by Nada Smiljanic Music by Ben Wetherfield

We're shining a spotlight on one of the most significant yet overlooked figures in art history, Berthe Morisot, and we'll find out how she became a founding member of the Impressionist movement. Featuring art historian Dr Sinéad Furlong-Clancy of the National Gallery of Ireland and the Hugh Lane Gallery; Dr Timothy Stott of Trinity College Dublin; Janet McLean, curator at the National Gallery of Ireland; and Dr Sabine Kriebel from University College Cork.

Nous sommes le 15 avril 1874, au 35 boulevard des Capucines à Paris, dans les studios du célèbre Nadar, photographe et écrivain. C'est là que se tient, durant un mois, ce qui deviendra l'une des plus fameuses expositions de l'histoire de l'art, celle qui donnera son nom à un mouvement révolutionnaire : l'Impressionnisme. Pissaro, Sisley, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, Monet figurent parmi les trente artistes exposées. Ah, j'oubliais une femme, elle s'appelle Berthe Morisot. Elle y présente une œuvre réalisée deux auparavant, intitulée « Le berceau ». Une scène de maternité qui deviendra un thème très présent dans son travail à venir. Pour l'heure, le tableau est à peine remarqué … enfin … une poignée de critiques, tout de même, admettent quelques qualités comme la grâce et l'élégance. Après avoir cherché en vain à le vendre, Berthe Morisot ne l'exposera plus et « Le berceau » restera dans la famille jusqu'à son acquisition par le musée du Louvre en 1930. Aujourd'hui, il est le tableau le plus célèbre de l'artiste et une image de la maternité partagée aux quatre coins du globe. Mais comment la représentation de la maternité a-t-elle évoluée, depuis l'Antiquité, dans son expression artistique ? Sujets traités : Maternité, art, Nadar, photographe, écrivain, Impressionnisme, Pissaro, Sisley, Degas, Renoir, Cézanne, Monet , Berthe Morisot., berceau, tableau, Avec nous : Anne Hustache, historienne de l'art.

A new series has been released this morning (3 July) on Netflix. It is called Man with 1,000 Kids, and Netflix is billing it as the true story of Jonathan Meijer, a man accused of travelling the world, deceiving women into having his babies - via sperm donation - on a mass scale. Nuala talks to Jonathan Meijer, the sperm donor, to mums Natalie and Suzanne, who had a baby conceived with Jonathan's donor sperm, to Natalie Hill, the executive producer who pitched the original idea for these films to Netflix and to Rachel Cutting, director of compliance and information at the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), the UK's independent regulator of fertility treatment.A new report from AutoTrader has found that there's a stark gender divide when it comes to going green with your vehicle choice. Hyper-masculine marketing, highly technical jargon and anxieties around running out of charge are just some of the reasons they give on why women feel excluded from making the switch to electric vehicles. Nuala talks to Erin Baker, who is the editorial director at AutoTrader and author of the report. It's 150 years since the first Impressionist exhibition was held in Paris in 1874. The artists involved included Monet, Renoir, Degas, Morisot, Pissarro, Sisley and Cézanne, and just one female artist was included in that first exhibition, Berthe Morisot. But women artists were involved with Impressionism, and 150 years on, the National Gallery of Ireland is holding an exhibition to put their work front and centre. The director, Caroline Campbell, joins Nuala McGovern to talk about the exhibition, Women Impressionists, and the four female pioneers who were integral to the artistic movement.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Laura Northedge

This week the Fine Artist, Michele Usibelli, whose work ranges from landscapes and animals to still life and figurative art. A Washington State native Michele was born in Seattle in 1962 then spent time in Utah and Alaska before returning to Edmonds, WA where she divides her time with another studio in Montana. Michele is the eldest of three children—she has two brothers—to John Hampson (d) a former navy serviceman and realtor, and mother Carol who was a home-maker, pianist and seamstress. Michele's childhood was spent mostly outdoors and playing sport. She was she says something of a tomboy, and she also followed in her mother's footsteps by playing the piano and sewing. Michele's interest in fine drawing led her to study architecture at the University of Washington and pursue corporate architecture. She also worked as Director of Marketing for the National Park Service, which involved extensive traveling. It was while she was on a business trip to Denali, AK that she met her husband, and after raising her three children—Nathan, Jacqueline and Angelina, that Michele returned to her love of art. Aside from painting most of the week, she also teaches workshops. Michele has won numerous awards, including the Silver Medal Award at the prestigious Salmagundi Club, NYC and the UCI Institute and Museum of California Art Award. Her work is in the permanent collection at the University of Alaska Fairbanks/Museum of the North the Brinton Museum/Wyoming, and her painting "First Light, Pioneer Mill Smokestack", was acquired by the State of Hawaii for their permanent collection.
